Installing the Bar

1. Beginning on the driver’s side, remove the center factory torx head bolt from the side of the upper windshield hinge
bracket. Insert the supplied set screw temporarily in its place. This will ensure the plate inside does not get out of
alignment. Now remove the remaining three bolts (two on the side and one on the front).

2. Place the driver’s side light bar support bracket in position on the windshield
hinge over the set screw already in place. Hand tighten one of the 5/16 Allen
head bolts in both the upper and lower bracket holes. Remove the set screw and
loosely fasten the other Allen head bolt. Now hand tighten one of the hex bolts,
flat and lock washers to the front of the support bracket.

3. Lubricate both ends of the center bar with a multi-purpose grease. THE KNOBS
ARE PREASSEMBLED AND SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE BAR. With light
tabs aimed upward, align the slot in the center bar with the threaded part of the
knob on the inside of the support bracket. (Fig. 1) Slide into place and turn
center bar counterclockwise until light tabs are level. Tighten knob to secure.

(Do not over tighten)

4. Repeat the procedure on the passenger side ensuring that you slide the passenger side mounting support bracket onto
the center bar before attaching to the windshield hinge.

5. After ensuring all parts are in alignment, you may now tighten all bolts and knobs. Check all bolts for tightness after
the first 500 miles of use.

Rotating the Bar

If necessary, you may rotate the center bar forward for less wind resistance or clearance to enter your garage. Simply
loosen the two knobs slightly and rotate the bar and lights forward. Re-tighten the knobs.

You’re DONE! - - - - - - - Install your KC lights and enjoy.
